[TenTec] cheap CW rig

[GARY HUBER]

Couldn't agree with you more Lyle... Most old Corsairs or predecessor Omni 
series can be purchased for a reasonable price and are still fairly 
competitive with a good RX and great QSK if one doesn't want to go all the 
way back to building a rig from parts. If you have time for a hobby, you 
most likely can find a legitimate way to acquire a $500 radio!
